            <h2>Why you need an eCommerce solution for your Web site</h2>
            <p>Busy lifestyles and hectic schedules have advocated for buying and selling of products and services via the Internet and it has grown into a multi-billion dollar industry. eCommerce applications have become mainstream and facilitate selling your products and services 24-7 in some cases without a brick and mortar facility. If your products and services are listed for sale on your Web site, it is as if you have a store front that never closes. In addition to obtaining business and site traffic during the day, you may be able to capture the occasional 3am customer who makes an impulse purchase.
            </p>

            <h2>The complexities of eCommerce</h2>

            <p>Creating an eCommerce Web site with an integrated shopping cart functionality requires some degree of programming expertise. Issues of security while handling transactions, organizing the flow of the item selection process, adding of items to a shopping cart and final checkout and payment  become critical issues which if not implemented correctly could spell disaster for your  site and act as a deterrent to repeat business from your customer base. Integration with third party vendors such as PayPal has also become the de facto standard as a means for processing payment transactions.
            </p>

            <h2>eCommerce made simple</h2>
